■country, the 24th February, 1821, to ■defend the empire against old Spain, Liul to support the Roman Catholic to the exclusion of all o- Eers. under which a Congress was ■elected of 1 62 members : they as lenibled in this city on the24tli Fe bruary last, and are yet in session. R On our arrival here the 22d April, it was doubtful what form of govern ment would be adopted—lmperial, nr Republican. Parties appeared pretty equal, until about the middle v s May ; when the Imperial party insisted on a standing army of 35,000 men, which the Congress, by a small majority, rejected, and voted 20,090: this caused part of the army, on the night of the 18th May, to proclaim their late successful General, Iturbide, j Kmperor, in the streets, which was j kept up during the night, with firing guns, ringing the church-bells, &c. This event produced a meeting of the | Congress, in tiie morning at 7 o'clock, and previous to adjournment, they sleeted him Emperor by a vote of "2 to 15 of those present, and on the .’lst he took the oath of office. The ;j)th June was fixed on for the coro lalion, but postponed to the 21st! July. j Several of the members left the < Congress, in consequence ol this e-, rent, for a time, the greater part of | whom have returned and resumed their seals, and business lias progress ed in Spanish style, very slow and harmonious. The Emperor is considered a man j of good sense, 38 years of age, about j the stature of Mr. Andrew Kerr, of your city, and more like him, than any person I can think of. The government is getting largely in debt. The mines are chiefly fill ed with whiter, and out of use. This j state of things has induced them late-' ly to send two or three agents to En gland to borrow money. Grants for land to emigrants from Ireland and the Canary Islands, are understood to be a part of the plan. We find the taking of Florida , and treatment of the Spaniards, operates against us Americans here; otherwise no grants j as we believe, would have been made j to any Europeans. We are often re-! minded of those circumstances—-our. fate, however, is yet unknown; we! have some hopes. The climate is the most pleasant in summer, on the table lands, 1 have tier seen. We find woollen cloth comfortable all summer, and yet there is seldom frost or ice in winter, and we now see every clear day, two ttountaiiis deeply covered with snow, about 60 miles eastward of the city —whilst the market is stocked with tropical fruits of nearly every sort, collected within about the same dis-: tance, south and west. T he soil is generally of good qual ity, where it is not hilly, and very productive and well watered.” COMMUNICATED. A rich treat is preparing for the lovers of “ sweet sounds.” We un derstand that, on Monday Evening ! Master J. Twibill, assisted by Mr, ■ T.sen’r. intends giving a Concert of 1 Vocal Music, and we venture to say, j it will be a feast of Melody where i none will be dissatisfied. The merit; i us Mr. T. is well known here, and in 1 -J our Eastern cities. Many an audi ence lias been charmed by the power , and sweetness of his well regulated ' j and cultivated voice; the mingled 1 force and delicacy of his modulation. 1 —Cut he brings with him here, an ( auxiliary of the most able and inter esting kind—a son of scarcely 13 , years of age, who bids fair to be a i successful rival of his father in rich- 1 ness, strength, and softness of into- 1 nation. ( i We heard this child for the first i time a few evenings since, and were 1 Djiafiectcdly delighted and surprised 1 at his powers. Although seemingly a little embarrassed, he enraptured ns hearers, with the delicious variety o! his modulation, and the propriety md sweetness of his cadences. All *ho heard him then, will surely wish to hear him again, and we sincerely them a crowded audience. Mr. and Master T. are Americans, •nd who is there among us, unwilling ‘o foster and patronize native talents ? A Friend to Merit. i Dita, Iw Providence R. I.

Die®, —On the 11th inst. after a short fad severe illne.ts, at his residence in Ogle thorpe county, Mr. Thomas A. Rones, Merchant of this place, aged 28 years. Obituary- We have to announce the melancholy intelligence of the death •f Stephen W~ Harris, L'vj- of Eatonton. He died at his residence in that place on Saturday evening last, after a short ill- Missionary. L “A great man has fallen in Israel | It is a distressing duty to lay before our I vders the death ol SP ENC F R RDA NE, | Esq. one ofthe Judges of the Court ol i Appeals. He breathed his last at the 1 1 Warm Springs in this state on Wedues | day eveuiug last. His interment was at tended by the bench and the bar of llu Superior Court for Bath County (then it ■ session,) and the various guests at th« springs. The loss of this dislinguishet i man and J udge, cannot be easily repair ' ed. lie is one of those few men, ti 1 whom all the world is willing to pay the ; homage of its respect for his great abili ; ties, his public spirit, his inflexible ener gy, and his great services to his country, [Richmond Compiler. COMMUNICATED. DIED, oil the 16th inst. at Mr. Ste phen Garrett’s, Edgefield District, S. C. Doctor William Howell Hay, in the 271 h year o( his age. r | his amiable gentleman fell a martyr to his humanity, having greatly exposed hiraselt in dis- I charging his professional duties, and con- I tinuing to visit Uie sick, after his own fe verish pulse and declining health had seri ously warned him of his danger. V\ ilh a cultivated mind and engaging manners, he soon attracted and fixed the esteem and confidence of a large circle of respectable 'friends and acquaintances.—He conse quently very soon acquired an extensive ■ and lucrative practive, and in this acqui -1 sition differed as much from the majority ol young medical practitioners, in the modesty of his pretensions, as he excell , ed them in the superiority of his talents. I But, alas! I lie hand which so lately admin istered rebel and health to others, is now i palsied by the stroke ol death ; and the 1 eye which was so often suffused with | sympathetic feeling, is now cold and life less in the grave. The inhabitants of his neighborhood will long bear in imagina tion, the hurried sound ol his coming, and remember will) tearful recollections his tender approach to the bed of sickness, j When men die in ordinary stations of life, j the sound of their fall is scarcely heard. But when the physician, of skill and ta lent, pays the last inevitable debt of na ture, every fami y has Inst a friend, the public a common benefactor. To his friends, it certainly will be some cousola : lion to know, that his sick bed was sur ! rounded with every comfort which kind ! ness could invent, and his pillow smoothed by the hand of (almost) parental affection. COMMUNICATED, Died, on the Sand-Hills, on Tuesday morning last, Mr. John Clarke, a na i live of the Parish of K Head, Ireland, but for many years a most respectable inha bitant of this city, aged 48 years. Few men during the period of a short ; life, have been called to endure more ex i quisite and uninterrupted suffering than j the subject of this short notice. But ; throughout the whole of his long protract ed indisposition, Mr. Clarke was a | stranger to the language ol impatience ; a *d there is every reason for the belief from first to last, his lips never uttered a sentence of c omplaint. It was an in s'Tiptioti written upon all his conduct, “ not my will, but thine, O God ! be done.” The propriety and circumspection of his deportment thro’ life, gave him a stronger claim to a distinguished place among the moral and 'he virtuous than can he assumed by must persons. In his general intercourse with his follow men, he invariably displayed an amiableuess of manners, and a kind and obliging con duct, highly illustrative of real benignity. —Nay, so uniformly upright, and con scientious was this truly good man. that we defy ail the sons of slander and de traction to cast otic solitary shade upon his lovely character. That Mr. Clarke had his faults, we doubt not ; (for wci are not among the number who contend for a sinless perfection itTthis life.) —But these faults were comparatively trivial, and when compared with the many, the noble, and superior virtues whh h adorn ed his character, dwindle almost into in significance itself. xVothing could be easier than to enlarge on that excellency of spirit which he un changeably manifested ; but the distin guishing perfection of his nature, was doubtless, an active and extensive bene volence proceeding from a conviction of duty and an earnest desire to alleviate distress. His hands, and his warm and generous heart, were ever open to assist the deserving youth on his entrance into husinesfe; and like the angel of merry would he fly to the abodes of poverty, there diffusing joy and happiness to the widow and her Indigent chi dren. Bless ed man! thou needest not onr imperfer t praises—thy name shall live forever—O, that thy mantle '. thy benevolent mantle, might fall on those who survive thee, and who know not the blessedness of doing good—O! that like thee they might imi tate the example of the eternal Son of God; and like thee, participate in the felicities of heaven. s)ort of .Sabannaf). arrived, Br- ship Richard Plasket, Stewart, Liverpool, 40 cU.
